Vermiculite board

So I carved out a vermiculite board to make a slumping mold... Do I need to put kiln wash on it before slumping?

I think no but the wife doesn't agree with me and now I'm doubting myself.

Yes! a generous coating. V board has a wicked tendency to stick to glass when both are hot.
